Holding on to the interior

Calenhad bridgehead

In the Outskirts area there is a corpse of an apostate, next to which there is a map. The map shows a castle on the ridge and a mark in the area of ​​the destroyed wall, your task is to find the marked place.


We leave for the Kalenhad bridgehead and climb the ruined fortress wall, you need to go down to the base of the guard tower and examine a small mound(for the treasure to become active, the Herald must come close).

Map of the path to the waterfall

A tree (with a nailed chair) can be found next to the camp on Lake Lutiy, next to it there will be a map on the ground, on which a waterfall under the tree is marked.

Where Druffalo roams

In the Redcliffe Farms area, there will be a message on the fence, the locals are asking for the return Druffalo(a pack animal similar to a buffalo). We move east and find an animal between the rocks. We return to the farm (Druffalo will follow your squad) and inform the owner about the completion of the task.

Bergrit's Claws

There is a small camp in the hills in the north of Redcliffe Farms, next to the sleeping place is a letter from a dead hunter. The herald and his party must go to Hafter's Thicket and receive bear claws. Big bears are serious opponents, they have strong armor, are resistant to cold and physical influences, but are vulnerable to fire damage.

Breaks in the farm

After setting up a camp near Redcliffe Farms, the Herald and his squad must close two gaps in the area. In the Ditch of the Burnt, your squad will have to face a more serious group of demons than before (level over 10).

The danger is not over

We move to the crossroads and clean the area from the presence of apostates. Next, the protagonist meets Mother Giselle, which offers to turn to the church for help. Despite the accusations, he gives the names of priestesses who can help in this complex political game. Next, we talk with Corporal Vale about the state of affairs in the Hinterlands, the NPC asks to help the refugees at the Crossroads.

Of course, the game came out a long time ago and most have already knocked out all the achievements in the game, but I think there are people who have not done this yet, so I decided to write a small guide on achievements. I will not paint all the trophies, because there is simply no point, because they are either easy or story-driven.

Dragon Age Inquisition - the main game includes 52 achievements on the PC and Xbox platforms, while on the PlayStation there are 53 achievements, since there is platinum.

1) "As a whole"- Complete an interclass combo with a controllable character in single player.

Personally, I just froze the enemy, and then hit him with a sword and that's it. There are a lot of combinations in the game.

2) "The luminaries of their era" - In one passage, take all possible companions into the squad.

Warning: This achievement can be skipped.

You need to find all satellites:

- Cole: After the quest "Defenders of Justice" it will be possible to recruit him.

- Sir: Appears in Val Royeaux on the quest "Red Jenny's Friends"

- Vivienne: After the scene with Lucius during the quest "The danger is not over" in Val Royeaux at the Summer Market, an envoy of the Circle of Magicians will appear, after talking with him, you will receive the quest "Imperial Enchantress". (Also, be careful - Vivien can only be recruited before going to Skyhold.)

- Dorian: In general, in Recruiting Dorian is no different from recruiting Cole, except that you must follow the path of the mages and choose the quest "Tempting Whisper" to meet him. Although even if you choose "Defenders of Justice" - he will still appear in the shelter after completing the quest.

- Blackwall: After returning from Val Royeaux, receive the quest "The Lone Guard".

- iron bull: After a trip to Val Royeaux, the quest "Captain of the Bulls" will become available.
- Cassandra, Varric and Solas:Join at the very beginning of the game.

3) "Well-read"- Find the curtain rune.

Curtain runes are runes activated by a special torch (which can only be lit by a magician and it burns with green fire).
As soon as the torch is lit, just explore the nearest area (usually the runes are located in caves, on the walls), it will not be difficult to find them, they will glow when you approach them with a burning torch.

4) "Liberator"- Liberate three fortresses in one playthrough.

Strongholds can be liberated in the following locations:
- In Crestwood (Caer Bronach Fortress);
- In Emprise-du-Lyon (Suledin fortress);
- AT Western limit(Fortress Griffin Wings).

5) "Starsyes bala"- Earn full location Orlesian court.

Quest "Evil eyes, evil hearts"- It's easier to get this trophy playing as a human since you'll start at 40/100 (25/100 for others)

The most important thing here is to answer questions correctly during conversations, especially during a dance with the queen's adviser, look for hidden documents (we give them to Leliana), as well as coins that we throw into the fountain.

6) Regalia- Fully upgrade one throne.

Just do it Additional tasks(meaning resource extraction tasks) at the command rate and sooner or later you will receive the details.

7) "On fiery wings"- Find a powerful ally to equalize the forces.

Easy to miss! During story quest"Fruits of Pride" in the Elven Temple you will be offered a choice - to drink from the source yourself or give it to someone else. You need to drink from the source yourself, and then a new location will appear and you will need to fight the dragon on it. (the dragon has high level health and level 17, so I advise you to be well equipped, although to defeat him you only need to hurt him by 50%)

8) "Keykeeper" - Get into the heart of the Solasan Temple.

First you need to complete the quest "Collecting Pieces" but this quest is not given immediately. First you need to find at least one fragment, for this you need to travel the world and look for the skulls placed in different places (spyglasses in the form of a luminous skull) - eyepieces, then look into it and mark the sparkling fragments, then collect them.

-Abyssal High Dragon" - has level 14, lives in the Western Reach (in the southwestern part of the location, south of the camp in Nazer Pass)

This dragon simply cannot be found, so that she arrives, you need to complete the quest chain of Frederic de Cero.

- Big Mistral - lives in the Emerald Graves (northern part of the map).

First DLC - Jaws of Hakkon - includes 4 achievements.

1) "Pyro"-Destroy all winter shards and light all fires in the old temple.

Here I would advise you to watch a video on the Internet about the location of the fragments, it will be much easier.

2) "Historian"- Reveal the secret of the legendary personality.

Story achievement.

3) "People's name"- Impress the Avvars of Stone Bear Hold and win their friendship.

Quest "Guests of the stronghold".

You need to get 5 approvals and the trophy is yours. In general, everything is simple here.

Many will receive approvals after completing the story missions, but you will also have to complete additional ones.

Complete the quest "Father's Name" and give the prey to the hunt master (required).
- After completing the quest "Trials of Hakkon" you will also receive approval.

Complete the "Up and Away" quest.
- Complete the quest "In Exile"
- We also carry out several tasks at the headquarters of the command, for which they also give approval.

4) "End of winter" - Do away with the myth of the ancient days.

Story trophy.

Second addition"Descent" - also includes 4 achievements (I won't describe them, you can't miss them).

The third addition "The Outsider" - includes 11 achievements, but we will not analyze all of them, but only those that can cause difficulties.

1) "Test of the Hermit"- Kill 10 large bears that have become stronger due to the "Bear Service".

Big bears are found only in the Emerald Graves location, turn on the test and go there. I advise you to look for bears closer to the water, near rivers and on small lawns. I do not advise you to go north, because trolls already live there and there are almost no bears there.

2) "Test of the Fool"- With the "Take it easy" challenge enabled: Reach Skyhold on level 5 or below.

Do only story quests, don't read scrolls, avoid enemies if possible.

3) "Thinking outside the box"- Open all caches guarded by ancient statues.

Elven Ruins, Forgotten Shrine. Here we read the inscription on the stone in front of the statue of the wolf and light the torch, which is looking at the statue of the wolf.
- Destroyed library, In the haven of the scientist.
- Located in the deep paths, we are looking for a blockage in front of the eluvian. But keep in mind that you can only get there when you get the Anchor Explosion ability, so you have to go back.
- Located in the location of Darvaarad, in the research tower. not far from the entrance to the tower on the left. (We light the fire in the following order: Owl, Deer, Dragon)

4) "Coroner"- Find all the clothes from Tailor-Made.

Only 4 things that are in the chests. All of them are located on the location "Crossroads". Here it is better to watch a video about their whereabouts, although it will not be difficult to find them yourself.

Also remember that if you loaded a save and turned on the test, then it will not immediately activate (Example "Trial of the Empress"). You need to exit the location you need and enter it again.

Let's play!!!
I am not an EA employee.

Dragon Age: Inquisition was released on November 18, 2014, but only now I decided to finally make a description of the walkthrough. Although I bought the game on the day of release, then I recorded about 7 hours of gameplay, uploaded the video to youtube for private access and that's it...

Didn't get caught. Boring, formulaic, linear, with quests straight out of World of Warcraft. Kill 10 bears, 15 sheep, open spots on the map, etc., etc. Inquisition lacks the atmosphere of the world of Ferelden that was in the original Dragon Age: Origins.

Perhaps there is an interesting plot here? No, no. Rifts, demons, gather an army of like-minded people, as well as gays and blacks. Classics of recent years from Bioware. Well, then the beauty of the next gene means? No, there is no such thing. Graphically, the game does not look bad, but due to its linearity, for example, there is not even such a familiar thing as a change of day and night. Skyrim (released in 2011) without mods looks better in my opinion. With mods, he is generally out of competition.

Unfortunately, Bioware is experiencing a crisis of ideas and seemingly talented people. After a mega-successful mass effect 2 in 2010, the studio is churning out blatant hack work:

Dragon Age II - I think comments are unnecessary

Star Wars: The Old Republic- WoW facelift with lasers, although they promised a revolution in MMORPG

Mass Effect 3 - With the departure of Drew Karpyshyn after Mass Effect 2, Shepard's story went downhill

Today from Bioware, the studio behind Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, Star Wars: KotOR, Mass Effect and Dragon Age, little is left. The founders have long earned their millions and retired in 2012. Will the upcoming Mass Effect 4 break the negative trend? I wouldn't really count on it, but I want to believe that the developers will be able to release a project worthy of the Bioware brand.

Let's return to the passage of Dragon Age: Inquisition. Despite such an introduction, I cannot say that Inquisition is bad game, rather, she simply did not live up to expectations, out of ten points I am ready to give her six and a half. And if not for the name Bioware in the developers, then all seven.

Heavenly Wrath

So, start. The plot of the story was known to everyone from the trailer that came out before the release of the game itself - we get the role of the chosen one, the survivor of the magical explosion that created the Breach. The gap is essentially a portal to the Shadow, from which all evil spirits, like demons, climb into the civilized world. The value of the hero lies in a special magic mark, with which you can close the gaps that appeared along with the Breach. After the standard procedure for choosing a class (I chose "Rogue") and creating appearance Let's set off on our journey.

The first step is to get to the gap with Cassandra. She acts as an escort, which is not surprising. After all, after the explosion, no one except the main character survived, so they at least do not trust him. We move forward.

On the way, we select two companions: the dwarf-robber Varrik Tetras and the elven magician Solas.

We close the first gap and return to the camp. Here is the first meeting with the Supreme Chancellor of the Church and Dragon character Age: Origins - Leliana.

The next task is to go to the temple along the mountain path. By the way, you could choose the path, in addition to the mountain, the option of passing straight with the soldiers was offered. On the way, as usual, we deal with Ghosts and Lesser Horrors.

We get to the temple. Here, the ceremony of sacrifice is already being carried out with might and main. We interrupt the procedure and enter the battle with the first boss - the Demon of Pride. The tactic is very simple - close the gap in the Veil and beat the enemy until he has no armor. Repeat if necessary.

Inquisition

In this part, the formation of a new political force in Ferelden - the Inquisition. And a little more planning and choice. For example, it is necessary to decide where the Inquisition in the person of the main character and his companions will throw their main forces. Influence points are spent on choosing a direction. After some deliberation, we set off to explore the Inner Lands. Here, not far from Redcliffe, Mother Giselle was last seen, it is necessary to protect her (which will ensure support from the Church), and at the same time restore order in the surroundings. In addition, Redcliffe Rider Dennett can provide horses for the Inquisition.

The main tasks of the location:

Ranger- negotiate with Dennett about the horses

The danger is not over- Eliminate the dangers at the Crossroads

Breaks in the suburbs- close 2 gaps in the Veil

Holding on to the interior- set up 6 camps

In addition, there are many additional missions, such as "Blood Brothers"; picking up fragments; picking up 10 carcasses of sheep to feed the refugees, etc. In this video, only the beginning of the passage of the Hinterlands.

Hinterlands

In this video, the continuation of the passage of the interior lands. Cleaning up the territory, collecting fragments, setting up camps, building up the character and earning influence points. According to the plot, there is no progress yet, but I discovered an interesting bug-tactic. From a long distance, the enemy does not react to the magician and he can methodically shoot the victim from the staff.

Spreading the influence of the Inquisition

As I said, Inquisition can outdo some MMOs in terms of the level of monotony of gameplay, so believe it or not, but in this part I continue to collect shards, roots, lambs, and also set up camps and close the curtains. A little diluted with third-party quests. So the widow of Maduro in the task "Renegade Farmer" asks for the return of the ring of her husband, who was mistakenly killed by the templars.

In the middle of the video, I found some kind of sect in a dilapidated fort (“Winter Watch Tower”). In the pluses of the game, you can write down the fact that each significant building / area has its own history or description. So is this place. If you wish, you can read the entry called "Lornan's Link".

Here, by the way, you can find Hindel. In one of the side quests "Shallow Breath", the husband of a sick refugee asks to find their son Hindel so that he can help prepare a healing potion.

But the most important thing is to close the local gap. It's amazing that people live quietly almost next to the portal, from which demons can come out. Not all Rifts are equally easy to close, as some are guarded by higher level enemies, but our party managed to do it. After the deed is done, you need to talk to the preacher Anais. She will thank the hero and offer her help to the Inquisition. You can choose from several options: helping refugees, collecting information, or simply spreading news about the Inquisition. Great, our party is growing!

Exploring the Hinterlands

What's going on in this part? That's right, collecting roots, lambs, fragments, etc. I also try to open all available camps (fast travel works through them) so that it is convenient to move around the entire map. He also returned the ring that he wrote about in the previous chapter and closed a few more side quests. I do not describe all the tasks in detail here, because the marker system works in Inquisition and there should not be any difficulties during the passage. Treasure maps come across from time to time, but this kind of charade has never been my forte in other games.

In this part, I first encountered dungeons, and if you speak Russian, then dungeons. In most games, underground spaces are well lit. Recall the same Skyrim, in which it was better to see underground than on the surface at night. Although this can be explained by luminous mushrooms and crystals. In Inquisition, dungeon lighting ranges from dimly lit to completely dark. Here you can use torches or a special curtain fire - a magical source of light, with the help of which not only visibility improves, but you can also read runes on the walls.

Teddy bear

There is a lot of fighting in this part, bears in woods Inquisition they seem to graze in flocks. I burned them, cut them and froze them, and they keep climbing and climbing. Bear bacchanalia ends somewhere in the 40th minute. Here for the first time I found an astrarium, such a small device with which it is necessary to compose constellations. This mini-game is at least more interesting than monotonous battles with battalions of bears. Then I got to Dennett's rider. As you probably don't remember, Dennett, or rather his horses, are needed by the Inquisition. But just like that, the farmer will not part with the animals, as usual, you need to complete several assignments.

Where the Druffalo Roams

It didn’t do without bears here either, but the main thing is that I found and cleared the Templars’ camp, and also completed the task “Where the Druffalo Roams”. The point is to find the mule and lead him back to the farm.

The danger is not over

It was not possible to close all the gaps in the inner lands at once. As I said, some gaps are guarded by more difficult opponents, and in order to diversify the passage a little, I returned back to the command headquarters. I ran a little, explored the "home" neighborhood.

Then we go to a new location - Val Royeaux, in order to establish contacts with another large sect - the Church. The plot cut-scene is about 30 minutes into the video. From it you can learn that a split occurred within the Church itself. The Order of the Templars - the paramilitary wing of the Church - now, apparently, is an independent force with which you will have to separately agree on support. However, these guys are not at all friendly to the Inquisition and call our party a movement of heretics.

We were about to leave, but an arrow appears with a message. Completing this quest will add a new companion to the group - Serah (Rogue class). And after almost a couple of meters, the envoy of the circle of magicians gives an invitation from Enchantress Vivien (class "Mage"). She can also be taken to the team.

Vivien and Sarah

Here, the task of Red Jenny (search for red things) and, in general, the study of Val Royeaux, which is quite small in size for the city. In fact, apart from a couple of merchants, there is no one. One unusual merchant sells, as he assures, something very valuable (10,000 gold), but he does not say what exactly. Perhaps this is the main attraction of the location.

Another thing to note is that Dragon Age: Inquisition has incredibly long level loading times. Even loading the tiniest terrain can take several minutes! There is a suspicion that this is due to the Denuvo DRM used. In any case, such an arrangement does not work at all.

So, for example, I went to the Afro-Negro sorceress Vivienne. There was not even any location, only a cut-scene lasting 4 minutes. At the same time, it also loaded 4 minutes! Watched a soap movie and get another 4 and a half minutes of loading screen!!! For a total of a quarter of an hour there was not even any gameplay. Tears roll when I remember Skyrim with its huge seamless world, and the downloads took 10-15 seconds, during which you could look at all sorts of 3D figures from the world of Tamriel.

redcliffe

In this video, we return to the Crossroads and the Hinterlands. Only this time we don’t touch the bears and roots, but go on a plot mission to Redcliffe to talk with the magicians and enlist their support. Namely, we need the Great Enchantress Fiona. The meeting is to take place at the Chaika and Lighthouse tavern.

They arrived at the place, but only again everything did not go according to plan and another batch of internal political showdowns is issued, which need to be sorted out. The bottom line is that the Enchantress Fiona at the meeting says that she was not going to agree on any alliance with the Inquisition, and in general did not leave any messages about the meeting, and the free magicians have already sworn allegiance to the Tevinter empire. In addition, she now has no influence on the magicians, since the head of the order has become Master Gerion Alexius. Yep, it's more or less clear now. The Tevinterers put their "Yanukovych" in the person of this Alexius. So now I have to either negotiate with him, or remove him and install a person more loyal to the Inquisition, the same Fiona. Negotiations did not take place, but we received an anonymous note “Come to church. You are in danger."

Further more interesting ... In the church we help the mysterious magician close the gap. This magician's name is Dorian and he is apparently gay, and part-time was also a student of Alexius. In general, the malevolent sorcerer wants to help us stop Alexius, since former mentor uses dangerous magic. Here appears Felix, the son of Alexius. And he reports that his father joined the sect of supporters of the rule of Tevinter called "Venatori" and he will do everything to stop the Inquisition. At the same time, Felix and Dorian seem to have a relationship that is by no means of a platonic nature ... Go figure out these graters. In short, I advise you to watch the video, so as not to completely get lost in the intricacies of the plot.

In this article, you will learn about one of the largest locations in Dragon game Age Inquisition. There is a lot of content in the Hinterlands, interesting places, additional tasks and more. In this place, the player and his squad spend a lot of time before setting off on a further journey.

Description

The structure of this location is no different from all the others. As elsewhere, you need to complete additional tasks in order to earn reputation points. Upon reaching a certain level in relations with the inhabitants of this location, you get access to new tasks and advancement in the story. In many ways, completing locations in Dragon Age Inquisition is similar to farming experience and gold in any MMORPG.

The Hinterlands are located between Ostagar Keep and Redcliffe. In the center of this region there are ancient fortresses and farms, through which the main character will have to travel and help the locals. The fact is that it was on this area that the fate fell to endure the confrontation between magicians and templars. Therefore, the Hinterlands are presented as a rather destroyed and lost region - everywhere there is fire, turmoil and only rare farmers continue to do their farming, no matter what.

But not only magicians and guards force residents to flee their homes in a hurry, wherever their eyes look. In the hills near Redcliffe, there are demons that were summoned with the help of rifts. By the way, the player will have to close these faults with the help of his strength.

Quests

The Hinterlands in Dragon Age Inquisition is one of the first and main locations. This is where most of the first half of the game will take place. Story missions, which take place separately in this region, are not here. But it is full of additional quests that are scattered at every step. The player can do quests, close gates, look for notes and items, pick up pages from the codex.

After you have appeared at the crossroads, you will immediately be given two tasks. One of them is so that you can hire the first partner, and the second is related to the widow Maura.

Further tasks can be found in several settlements(Redcliffe Farms, Redcliffe Village, Winterwatch Tower).

Enemies

In the Hinterlands you will meet opponents of different types, races and even worlds. The main ones, because of which the war began, are magicians and templars. Everywhere you will meet detachments of fighting opposing sides. You can intervene in their conflicts, or you can simply pass by.

The "indigenous people" of the location include wild animals - wolves and bears. They will have to be killed in the course of several tasks, but otherwise the animals do not do any harm.

Demons are another dangerous foe in the Hinterlands. They fight with everyone - your squad, mages and templars. In total, in the location you can meet 4 types of such enemies: demons of horror, despair, anger and ghosts.

And the last kind of enemies are dragons. There are only two of them in the Hinterlands: the Fereland frostbite and her hatchling. Do not rush to run "to visit" her, but first "pump" well and prepare the squad.

The quest will begin after you find a letter on the body of a dead dwarf in a small cave southeast of the original camp. We go to the place indicated on the map and encounter a magical barrier that closes the entrance to the cave. To destroy it, you need to attack it with "opposite" magic (in this case, the ice barrier), so we take a fire staff and shoot it at the barrier. Inside, we deal with the enemies and go into the very depths of the cave. There we find a vein of red lyrium.

Renegade Farmer

South of the original camp, a lone hut can be found. We go inside and talk to the widow Maura. She will ask you to find the ring that the templars took when they killed her husband. We go to the place marked on the map and kill all the templars, and from the body of one of them we take the ring, which we return to Maura.

Love will wait

In the southeast of the original camp, in the gorge, we find a letter on the corpse of a woman. It follows from it that she was heading to her lover in a settlement in which the followers of a certain cult live ("Exile of Lornan"). We go to the area marked on the map. After passing through the gate, we go to the right and go up the stairs. We find Berand and report that his beloved Wellina died. In gratitude, this noble can join the Inquisition.

Glory to Herald Andraste

Speak with Anais at the entrance to the cult settlement ("Lornan's Exile"). She doubts that you are not the one you say you are. We go to the farthest part and go down into a small cave, where we close the gap. We return back to Anais, who will offer several options for how the sect can help the Inquisition.

Unusual duet

We take the quest from the scout, who stands north of the camp on the Dwarf Pass. We go south to the marked area and kill the templars as quickly as possible. Depending on whether Ritts died or not, we report to the concerned scout.

Beloved amulet

In the southwest of the camp on the Dwarf Pass, near the hill we find the body of a templar, from which we select the amulet. We attribute it to the beloved of this templar - the sorceress Ellendra. She will be standing near the altar north of the crossroads (where we met Giselle's mother).

shallow breathing

In one of the huts near the crossroads we meet a refugee who asks to find a potion for his seriously ill wife. We go to the settlement of cult followers ("Lornan's Link"). After passing through the gate, we go to the left, into the tower, and climb the vertical stairs. We tell everything to Hindel, he gives the right potion, which we take to the refugee.

After completing the indicated quests, return to the ranger. However, immediately, before completing these two tasks, you can take a personal horse near Dennett's house.

The statue is to the south. As soon as you do as it is written in the letter, "Grandfather" will appear, or rather a dead man. Kill him and the quest is over.
